WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) - A woman is accused of stabbing another woman during an altercation in Wilmington early Tuesday morning.
According to a news release, officers responded to the 3600 block of Sir Galahad Lane at the Avalon Apartments just before 3 a.m. after receiving a report of a physical dispute that resulted in a 22-year-old woman being stabbed.
The victim was taken to New Hanover Regional Medical Center with non-life-threatening wounds, police say.

WILMINGTON – The City of Wilmington is joining other urban cities across the nation in the fight against climate change by committing to clean energy over the next 30 years.
In March 2020 the city council established the Ad Hoc Clean Energy Policy Task Force to set the path for these green ambitions. Since then, a group of 34 volunteers – made up of residents, business and utility representatives, council appointees and others – have met to conduct research and study best practices.
“As we all begin to have to deal with the impacts from climate change, looking at ways that we can reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and lower our dependence on fossil fuels is going to be increasingly important,” said Wilmington Sustainability Program Manager David Ingram, who led the effort.
